I am an Equestrian that competes in showjumping & dressage , with 25 years of experience. I am a passionate, goal driven & dedicated rider that work towards my goals.

My competitive riding career started at the age of 9 where I excelled in a variety of disciplined including show jumping, dressage, showing, equitation and eventing. I have represented the Mpumalanga provincial team 9 times since the age of 12 on 6 different horses across 4 disciplines (show jumping, dressage, showing and equitation.) I competed at an International show held in Swaziland and won the Victor Ludorum for the show at the age of 15. 

I was the youngest person to achieve my FEI Level 1 Instructor's course at 18 years old presented by French Instructor Kathy Amos Jacob. I have competed successfully in the Open grades and I have produced over 20 young horses who are competing successfully.  I have attending clinics held by a few international riders namely Oliver Lazarus, Jenny Veenstra, Michal v Eck as well as ridden in Belgium with Walter Lelie.

I am a qualified educator with my Honors in Learner Support which I utilize by coaching riders of all ages as well as riders with special needs. I am a passionate coach and my students have competed successfully in SANESA shows as well as graded shows up to 1.20m. 

I am currently producing my own young horse, White Waters Omelia's Silver Lining. She is a 5year old warmblood mare that has been bred to be one of the top show jumpers of the future. I am currently being coach by Ian van Schalkwyk and Elena Jankowitz.
